Nintendo Gaming / My Bozo Bose/GBA Dream

« on: February 23, 2003, 11:27:44 AM »

Why dont they have a mini amp, or one of those really tiny loud speakers ( I have 3 in my room) and build the Game Boy around it? It would work fine dont tell me it wouldn't, it just might be a little big hehe.

Nintendo Gaming / GBA vs GBA SP

« on: February 23, 2003, 11:17:46 AM »

I am thinking about buying a GBA or GBA SP. With a lot of the traveling I will be doing I think it will be a worthy investment, and come in handy at boring times. My question is, is the GBA SP really worth it? I am thinking about just getting a GBA. The SP just looks different and the hardware is the same. The size doesn't really matter since the GBA is small and unnoticable in my pockets anway. I'm not sure about glare or whatever but on my Game Boy Pocket I never had glare. I played all the time. Is the sound on the SP and GBA the same? Are the speakers the same? Thanks for helping.

Nintendo Gaming / Hardest Single Thing To Do On Gamecube?

« on: February 23, 2003, 11:10:20 AM »

The single hardest thing to do would be to burn GameCube games. I used to burn Playstation and Dreamcast games. I still can't figure it out although I bet in the future someone will.

Nintendo Gaming / Gettin' Cube...finally! (Official "What game should I get?" Thread)

I didn't like Mario Sunshine because of the gameplay, graphics, and hype. Almost every review I read gave it a perfect score or 9.5 rating. The FLUUD thing was so lame, and since when does Mario go on a vacation? The talking was just horrible. Nintendo needs to bring back the Super Mario Brothers, Bowser, Magikoopa, and Toad!

Nintendo Gaming / Uplifting News: Current Sales

« on: February 21, 2003, 07:06:04 PM »

I'm not sure if it  was Japan sales, it just said total (I'm not positive if it was Japan though) anyway news is news, and if Nintendo could keep up the strong sales things will look good. We have Zelda coming, online play (hopefully) the GBA SP just released, and E3 coming, hey Nintendo could have a excellent future.

Nintendo Gaming / Uplifting News: Current Sales

« on: February 21, 2003, 01:54:55 PM »

These sales are current from The Magic Box. These are how many consoles were sold for 2003.

PlayStation 2   542,600
GameBoy Advance 602,800
GameCube  153,600
Xbox 35,000


These probably aren't the exact figures, but look at Nintendo go! GameCube blew away the xbox and the GBA is beating the PS2. If only the GC sales could be that high, but good news!!

Nintendo Gaming / Gettin' Cube...finally!

Get NFL2K3 instead of Madden. Madden controls are horrible I never have liked them. Even thought the computer cheats in NFL2k3 (I'm winning 35-14 super bowl game I fumble the ball 3 times and throw an interception in 3 minutes lose 42-35) It is still a great game. The create a team mode is cool too. Get a platinum GC I wish they had it when I got mine. The black is cool but cmon...Platinum baby!

Nintendo Gaming / Wireless LAN+Broadband Adapter

« on: February 20, 2003, 06:38:40 PM »

I dont know if this question was asked but I am going to ask it anyway. In my dad's office is the cable modem. In my room I have a wireless LAN card allowing me to have cable modem capabilities. My question is...if I want to play on the net with my cube can I get a broad band adapter? Will it work? I don't want a 56kmodem one...once you have speed you just cant go back.

Nintendo Gaming / The Cube and Online Games

« on: February 20, 2003, 01:31:03 PM »

I know this question has probably been asked, but I am going to ask anyway. Why do they sell the GC online adapters if there is no service? Is there a way to play online games or do any games support them? Is there an online thing I don't know about?

Nintendo Gaming / Are you satisfied with your Cube at the moment?

« on: February 19, 2003, 03:57:36 PM »

Of course there are more exclusives then SSBM and AC. I am looking foward to Zelda and F-Zero, actually I can't wait to play them. I do wish Nintendo made some better exclusive games (seriously SMS was a joke) and I really can't wait for the internet play. The day when net play comes is the day I play cube 24/7.

Nintendo Gaming / War Games

« on: February 19, 2003, 11:19:51 AM »

Theres Medal of Honor Frontline. I love that game. I am hoping for a C&C game (man I love those) or some sort of RTS game with online play. The cube controller wouldn't be very good for playing one of those games...so maybe they could package a mouse with it

I am not really happy with my GC. All of the games I have could be found on any other console with the exception of SSBM and Animal Crossing. Atleast the other consoles have online play, which Nintendo is lacking.

Nintendo Gaming / Marionette

« on: February 16, 2003, 05:45:37 PM »

I don't know if theres already a thread about this or not so I will start my own. Is it me or does this game sound like a female Mario game with a horrible name. "Mario"nette. I believe it's being made by Nintendo which gives me more reason to believe so. I hope I am not right...

Nintendo Gaming / Online game Ideas?

« on: February 16, 2003, 05:27:27 PM »

I think what would be cool would be some sort of online fighting game where you get to customize your character, do quests and gain bonuses or items, and fight eachother and keep a record online. Then you could have all kinds of matches like 1v1,2v2, all the way up to...8v8. Your fighter could be trained in any skill...martial arts, wrestling, brawler, and some characters who want to be mages could cast spells. There could be a ladder that tells everyones ranking and of course you have to have some bad ass music playing during the fights. Maybe some Led Zeppelin! Anyway what do ya think.

Nintendo Gaming / My First Post - Smashing Drive

« on: February 16, 2003, 05:12:07 PM »

Hello everyone I am new to these forums

Has anyone played Smashing Drive? For some reason even though the music is horrible, I find this game to be so much fun. All the power ups and the fast racing just keeps me addicted to it. I know it got some pretty bad reviews but I gott say for $9 I don't think I could have gotten a better game. I'm going to play this until I get Zelda, which will hopefully take me away from my damn Diablo 2 addiction.
